Morning. Ragman, Delaval Road, Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, 1959. 📷 Jimmy Forsyth “It's no good burying the pictures," Jimmy said in a final interview. "They should be given out to more people, and they should be free. After all, they belong to their subjects, to the people themselves."

Morning all. Photographer Don McCullin. Consett, County Durham, 1970s.

On the anniversary of the day Margaret Thatcher resigned, let us take a moment to remember what a cruel, heartless piece of shit she was.

Dawn smolders in a glowing sky. Gold stitched through clouds like fire’s sigh. A lone fisherman stands where breakers gleam. His line cast quiet as a waking dream. Stones glow green beneath the tide’s slow sweep. and morning rises from the ocean’s deep.
